UT Trooper[TK] Posted September 7, 2015 Report Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) I was able to get my hands on one of the first MLC TFA stormtrooper helmets (fiberglass). You can see his build threads over on the rpf along with his armor, user mlcallanta. The kit comes with the greeblies separate from the helmet for better painting and it also comes with a mesh screen. Lenses weren't included so those will be ordered soon. The quality is fantastic which is usually the case with MLC's products. I think this is the best looking fan made helmet in terms of having more of that duck look. I'll update the thread as I finish this thing off! Here is a shot of a helmet Mardon finished: Edited September 7, 2015 by UT Trooper Quote
pattrooper Posted September 8, 2015 Report Posted September 8, 2015 if you don't mind me asking how much and where? Quote
Holnave (evan_loh)[TK] Posted September 8, 2015 Report Posted September 8, 2015 From what I've heard MLC is a clone maker based in the Philippines. Nice to hear he's doing TFA Stormtrooper runs. Joe, can you link us MLC's RPF thread on the helmet and armour? Quote
bdgr[501st] Posted September 8, 2015 Report Posted September 8, 2015 MLC also does Biker Scout and Tie Fighter helmets. I have 2 of his fiberglass Biker Scout helmets. Quote

UT Trooper[TK] Posted September 16, 2015 Author Report Posted September 16, 2015 All finished! Although, my painting is far from perfect, but it gets the job done. Quote
TK5492[TK] Posted September 30, 2015 Report Posted September 30, 2015 Did you just use white gloss for this or did you follow with clear coat? Quote
